I will definitely save seed. The challenge will be finding seeds that weren't in this years swap. I almost feel obliged to go out and buy some obscure seeds just for growing to swap, to repay the kindness of others. There's an excuse for more tomatoes or perhaps beans

I have been hoarding all the little plastic bags that had screws and bits in them ever since I realized how sad my little seed parcels were and yet I'm still drawn to fold little envelopes...
I'm looking forward to saving more seed this year. And quietly keeping fingers crossed that anyone who tries to grow something I've sent actually gets some germination. Ooh, the suspense!

Sowed some swapsies today. Who was it said if I started growing chillies I would become obsessed, Veggie I think. I eat perhaps one chilli a fortnight and had resolved to grow just one plant as an experiment, so why have I sown at least 5 varieties and several seeds of each? No will power.

It was me , and oh look I was right You might be right, but I reserve judgement until a y or all of them get to the growing stage, then along with the peppers and aubergines and masses of tomatoes I'll be in trouble with space. What are the chances of persuading P to build me another greenhouse? . I already know the answer to that one, a big fat NO! Oh, but isn't it fun sowing seeds, so much potential. Most of the chillies were yours SC thanks.

The other chillies were from Far End Woman.
